Profile:
The only player to complete the double of 500 runs and 50 wickets
in one season of the Ranji Trophy, Sunil Joshi is one of the many
cricketers who have forced themsevles into the Indian side largely
on the basis of their performances around the domestic circuit. A
gutsy middle order who has now and then showed a penchant for all
out attack in the limited overs game, and an orthdox left arm
spinner who has good control over line and length and can really
give the ball a healthy tweak, Joshi has been in and out of the national
team for some years now.
However, to be fair to Joshi, he has never really enjoyed the confidence of
the selectors. But he has it in him to be a match
winner as he proved by his mesmeric figures of 10-6-6-5 against
South Africa in the tri series game in Kenya at the start of
the 1999-2000 season. Recently in the absence of Anil Kumble,
he was pitchforked into the role of the side's leading spinner
and rose to the occasion with an eight wicket haul in the one off
Test against Bangladesh at Dhaka. For good measure, he also got
92 and just missed joining the ranks of Vinoo Mankad and Polly
Umrigar as the only Indians to have got a hundred and taken five wickets in
an innings in a Test. This has been the highlight of
Joshi's chequered career. At the domestic level, he remains one of
the stars and played a leading role in Karnataka's Ranji Trophy triumphs in
the 90s.(Partab Ramchand)
